“OMG THIS PLACE IS GORGEOUS! Everything from the ambiance to the service to the tasting menu - GORGEOUS! Each dish was a delight for the eyes and taste buds, and our server was absolutely delightful. They easily accommodated the various dietary restrictions at our table. Worth the drive from Toronto!”
“It is nice to have a local pizza restaurant that delivers for sure. The flavour is very good and the crust is very nice, the reason for a 4 star rating is that the toppings are very skimpy. I would suggest you order double toppings to get what you would expect a normal pizza to have. Of course it does become pricey. The service is always fast for delivery and that is much appreciated.”
“We had a perfect Sunday afternoon. Thanks to Emma for sharing the warmth of Westcott Vineyards’ wines and wood burning fireplace. No better place to share a cold winter afternoon with my beautiful wife. Thank you.”
“I have been a Flat Rock wine club member for many years, and I know some of their most closely-guarded secrets. Here's my favourite two:1) there are usually two hidden waterfalls on the property (except when it's really dry). You are welcome to buy a glass of wine and take it out exploring to find them. (Hint - one is beside the only southward-oriented slope on the 20 Mile Bench. I am also pointing at it with my glass in the first pic. The other is above some giant limestone rocks covered in thick moss near a bridge). Bring a sandwich, the mossy rocks are a great spot for a little picnic.2) there are smallmouth bass in the pond, and you can catch them easily using a bit of hot dog weiner as bait. You might have to compete with a blue heron, a bald eagle, or a cute but fierce muskrat for the best fishing spot, though.BONUS SECRET #3) Nadja's Vineyard (directly to the left of the driveway as you drive in) produces the best Riesling in Ontario. Why? Only 2 acres of 20 year old Weis clone 21B Riesling vines growing on only 1.5 feet of soil just barely covering all that delicious dolomitic limestone AND a gentle gravity flow process that keeps all those resulting complex natural esters, terpines, and phenols intact and inside the wine where they belong! That's why! Don't believe me? TRY IT YOURSELF, IT'S FREAKIN INCREDIBLE!”

“Great value ( Ordered a double medium pizza deal) Generous with the toppings. Went in to pick up, greeted warmly, very kind worker. Would be a 5 star, I just wish the pizza was a baked just a tad longer! But everything tasted great! Would recommend!”
“Cute and authentic locally historic Italian venue. Love the atmosphere and the history attached to this place:) Expansive menu, So many choices ! Have to make this a regular priority when in St. Catharine's to try out the whole menu. Everything authentic house made pasta, the chefs specials were delicious , the appetizers are filling enough! Wine menu is heavily Niagara, but the Italian selections are lovely.”
“It was my first time going here and it was so amazing! I loved every minute of it. They have a huge selection of games to choose from. The atmosphere was comfortable and the staff were great, especially our server Josh. He was really kind and funny! The food was incredible and the drink from the latte to the mocktail was delicious. We will definitely be back!”
“We had a lovely brunch here and service is great too. We ordered lobster Florentine Benedict and pork belly Brie Benedict, and the tastes and textures are amazing. Will definitely come back!”
“Today was the first time I visit this place and I love middle eastern food I tried in so many places in Ontario but nothing like this, the guy who cash me out who made it was awesome and can recommend this to everyone please if your hungry go there!Honest opinion best shawarma I ever had?”
“Unfortunately I cannot get sushi anywhere else since I found this place. The money that I earn working 24/7 moves to their pockets regularly. However, I am willing to get bankrupt to have sushi here. More than the best all round, taste, service, freshness, amount, and price. Please keep in mind that we should let them be in Niagara FOREVER.”
“I ordered the strawberry bubble tea. It was alright, not really outstanding or anything kind of lacking in flavor. I ordered full sugar, but it wasn't too sweet. It took around 5-8 minutes to make. Tasted fresh but not really anything special.”
“Stepping through the door of this intriguing gem and it's like you've been transported into a Paris cafe from the late 1940's. I've only been 3 times but this is rapidly becoming my go-to place for a casual hangout. Whether the music played is from vintage recordings or from live musicians, it fits the mood. Doreen is the ideal hostess for a place like this. She crafts her liquid creations with love and care. Then when she buzzes over to your table with them you can see she enjoys the interaction with her customers/friends. A word of warning though, in keeping her intentions for creating an atmosphere suitable for conversation, weekend usage of laptop/notebook computers is strictly forbidden here on weekends. Btw, only having a peanut butter cookie (which was exactly like my mother's homemade version), I can't speak accurately for the food, but if it's anything on the level of that cookie... easily 5 stars.”
“Visited this past weekend for the first time to celebrate my upcoming birthday with friends. The dining area was nice as the glass allowed plenty of sunlight in. The food was also delicious and we enjoyed the winter panzanella, mushroom pasta, short ribs, and split both the desserts. We also had a bottle of the Betty wine which was tasty. Unfortunately, I was really looking forward to my first charcuterie postpartum and it was very disappointing. It had about 4 thin slices of meat, 2 chunks of cheese and the rest was pickled items - some of which we didn't even eat. The best parts of a charcuterie were severely lacking! I have had much better, especially given the price, and would not order this item again. We did give feedback to our waiter in hopes that he could recommend they consider improving this item in the future. Overall, a lovely afternoon and would return to sample other main dishes.”
“"Guac Mexi Grill is an absolute gem!From the moment you step in, you're greeted with warm smiles and the irresistible aroma of authentic Mexican cuisine.

“Delicious, the beef actually taste like lemongrass and had a charred and grilled flavour! Spring rolls and lettuces and other veggies are super fresh, clean and crisp!”
“Amazing value, fresh food waitress. Waiters are nice. Lots to choose from you should go don't miss out! Please go on our way back from Niagara Falls. It's about 15 minutes from the Falls.”

“1st time visit finally and it as absolutely amazing! Rhonda our server was fantastic, food was to notch and ambiance was very inviting! I am from the area but now live in Michigan. I have been driving by for years and it now explains why the parking lot is always busy. Well done from another Restaurateur. We will be visiting very soon! Thank you”
“The absolute best place to get pitas!!!?This location has some of the most friendly workers, including the manager, as well as the younger lady with short brown hair and younger gentleman with brown hair(: Very sociable & welcoming every time you go in!!The pitas always come out exceptionally and it is definitely a go to!!!?”
“Stopped for a bite to eat and a couple of drinks before the Brantford Bulldogs game against the Ice dogs. We will definitely visit here again, great staff and excellent food.”
“We have been going to this restaurant for years back to the time it was called East Japanese. While some things have changed over the years, one thing has remained consistent - the food is great and so is the service.We most recently dined during Family day and they even had a balloonist and face painting for kids so that was an added bonus our 8 year old appreciated very much. The kitty serving robot (as my daughter calls it) kept her entertained.As a vegetarian myself with a husband who loves meat, this restaurant provides the perfect food options for both of us. My favourites are the yam roll, the vegetable udon and the grilled eggplant. My husband will never say no to the white tuna and spicy salmon tuna, the shrimp tempura hand rolls, the beef tempura and calamari. The mango and coconut ice creams are perfect for dessert the end.Service is always polite and fast but make sure you have a reservation especially during the weekend as they can get busy. The ordering is done through an iPad and we like the fact there are pictures for everything with a description.Pricing for the “all you can eat” varies depending if it is lunch or dinner and if it is weekend or during the week. While it is a bit on the higher end, it is totally worth it. We highly recommend this restaurant and hope it will continue to be our favourite Japanese restaurant for years to come!Vegetarian options: Tons of options - from the staples like edemame, miso soup, spring rolls and veggie tempura to udon noodles and vegetarian rolls (the yum roll, cheese strawberry and cheese mango rolls are delish).Kid-friendliness: Our 8-year old loves dining with us, she loves the serving robot.”
“We came in 30 minutes before closing with two tired children and were warmly greeted with delicious food and VERY generous portions. Not only was the food and service excellent, there was such a happy family atmosphere with friends and family stopping in for conversation and jokes. After learning that we were continuing on our long road trip the owner gave us two water bottles for the road. The gesture was heart warming and we left with our hearts and tummy full and happy.”
“I am so sorry I supposed to rate another place but I don’t know accidentally brar 22 pizza pop up on my google map. I really apologize for that and I know your services are best in ”

“The tacos were very good, closest to Authentic Mexican Taco's I have found so far in Downtown St.Catharines..and I lived in Texas for many years and am definitely well educated in all aspects of Authentic Mexican food! The prices are are good for al a carte as well. Lots of craft beer and different coolers to try and a great sized patio for the warmer days! A hidden little secret you Must stop and check out!”
“Lovely atmosphere. Although maybe 1/2 full, noise level wqs agreeably low. Food excellent as always. Our server was outstanding... just chatty enough to be pleasant without being intrusive. All in all, a five-star experience!”
